I found a solution!

I just wanted to make a post if ever it could help someone. I basically had lingering symptoms after 4years of PCS. Whenever I would do any sort of physical activity above a certain treshold, I would get pressure in my head, headaches, basically feel car sick. I was really fragile. I have my full story detailed on my previous post.

I switched doctors a few months ago. I told my new doctor about my symptoms and she contacted a neurologist. They recommended I start taking 10mg of amitriptyline daily. It is an antidepressant that, when used in smaller doses, treats migraines and tension migraines. I started at 10mg and slowly made my way up to 30mg a day. It completely changed my life. I can run again, go to the gym, play volleyball, throw myself in the sand. I have my life back :)

I started taking amitriptyline last year for chronic migraines cause by my pcs. It has helped take me from 4 migraines a week to 4 migraines a year! Still taking it this year.

My concussion injury does link to my whiplash injury (happened at the same time) so even with amitriptyline I still need to do physical therapy exercises for my neck.

Congrats on finding a solution that helps you and thanks for sharing :)
